Description

"Salute to Adventurers" by John Buchan is a historical adventure novel published in 1915. Set in late 17th-century Virginia and Scotland, the story follows young Scottish merchant Andrew Garvald as he navigates dangerous colonial trade wars, Indian uprisings, and romance. When a crazed religious zealot emerges as the unlikely leader of a massive Native American force threatening the settlements, Garvald must undertake a perilous mission into the western mountains to prevent catastrophe and win the heart of Elspeth Blair.
